How to keep the leaves of Ping an tree green

Ping an tree, like its name, is a kind of tree species with auspicious meaning. Because its branches and leaves remain evergreen all the year round, its ornamental value is high, and it is also very practical, so it is more suitable for indoor foliage pot cultivation. Since Ping an tree is suitable for indoor foliage, its ornamental value must be reflected by green leaves, so how to keep the leaves green is the focus of our daily maintenance and management. So, how do the leaves of Ping an tree grow green?

How to make the leaves of potted safe trees green, first of all, we need to be familiar with their growth habits, and then according to the characteristics of habits to create a comfortable environment for pot growth. Ping an tree likes a warm, humid, sunny growth environment, but also has a certain ability to tolerate shade, but it is not resistant to drought, high temperature, waterlogging and cold at the same time. Compared with other tree species, it is relatively fattening. Then, we can create a growth environment and maintenance management for it according to these conditions.

1. Soil

Ping an tree likes a slightly acidic soil environment that is fertile and loose, permeable and rich in organic matter, so we need to properly improve the soil quality on this most basic standard to ensure that the basin soil is not easy to consolidate, strong permeability and suitable acidity. The editor recommends the use of garden soil, rotten leaf soil, river sand, sawdust or carbonized rice husk in an appropriate proportion to make the basin soil more fertile and looser.

Second, lighting

Although Ping an tree has a certain ability to tolerate shade, it also prefers the growing environment with plenty of light, especially in the growing season. Due to sufficient light, it can accelerate the photosynthesis of the leaves, thus making the leaves of the plant grow brighter and greener. However, it should be noted that shading measures should be taken in time under the hot summer sun. Although Ping an trees like the light, they are also afraid of being exposed to the hot sun, otherwise their green leaves are easy to burn.

Third, temperature

Ping an tree is most suitable for growing at temperatures between 20 °C and 30 °C. if you want to keep it growing normally, the minimum temperature should not be lower than 18 °C. In order to survive the winter safely, the winter temperature should not be lower than 5 °C, otherwise frostbite will occur easily. But in the middle of summer, the temperature is often higher than 30 °C, so we also need to do a series of work, such as ventilation, moisturizing, cooling and so on, otherwise the plants are prone to withered and yellow branches and leaves, and it is difficult for the leaves to keep fresh green. Therefore, it is very important to create a suitable temperature environment for Ping an tree.

Fourth, watering

Water is one of the most important conditions to ensure the normal growth of potted safe trees. As the original Ping an tree likes the moist growth environment, whether it is basin soil humidity or air humidity, the requirements are relatively high, so the hydration and moisturizing work must be done well. But at the same time, Ping an trees are not water-resistant, so they should not be overwatered at ordinary times. In general, when the surface of the basin soil becomes dry and cracked, it is necessary to spray more foliar water to keep the leaves fresh and green. Measures should be taken to avoid rain in the rainy season, and drainage should be carried out in time when the humidity in the basin is too high. Because the roots of Ping an trees are mostly fibrous roots, in addition to timely watering, it is also necessary to avoid stagnant water, otherwise it is easy to rot the roots. But in order to make the leaves greener and glossy at the same time, we can combine watering with a few drops of vinegar in the water to improve the acidity, usually 1-2 times a month.

5. Fertilization

Ping an tree is more fond of fertilizer, in addition to pots can add sufficient base fertilizer, usually also need to pay attention to topdressing. Because the leaves of Ping an tree are large and large, they need to consume a lot of nutrients to maintain the bright green state, and they need a large amount of fertilizer in the growing season, so they can keep applying thin cake fertilizer or alum once a month. In autumn, phosphate and potassium fertilizer with a concentration of 0.2-0.3% potassium dihydrogen phosphate can be applied twice to improve the cold resistance of plants and lay a good foundation for safe and smooth wintering. In particular, it is necessary to control the concentration of fertilizer, because the roots of Ping an trees are mostly fibrous roots, the ability to absorb nutrients is limited, too high concentration will lead to root burning phenomenon.

6. Pruning

Ping an tree is more resistant to pruning and can be carried out all the year round, and pruning is an important means to promote plant germination and branch scattered leaves. If you want the plant to spit out green leaves quickly, it is usually pruned in the spring and autumn growing season. Although potted Ping an trees can also be pruned in summer and winter, the plants are often affected by high and low temperatures. Even if pruning is carried out, it is often slow to branch and grow leaves, so it is difficult to achieve the effect of rapid greening.
